Instructor Opportunities

Building a rewarding career as a martial arts instructor

Our martial arts instructors come from all backgrounds and walks of life. We have journalists and school teachers becoming martial arts instructors and so many other life stories to share with you about people making a career change and the choice to teach martial arts. While having a background and experience in various karate styles is a plus, it is not an essential. That’s because Action Karate provides you with the necessary training to empower lives through martial arts. What is essential for us is your passion for teaching. So, if you’re someone who loves helping and mentoring others as they progress through various belt levels until they get their black belts, you’re the ideal fit for us. Join our team and experience a profound sense of community and help change lives for the better. Become a role model for the children and adults in your community and watch the positive transformational effect that teaching martial arts has on everyone you encounter.

I had a great career in journalism, but came home every day stressed. I didn't want my kids to see that anymore. Martial arts gave me the opportunity to spend more quality time with my kids and be in a work environment that feels like family.
